    hi John,
    Don't know where you live but it is not illegal to burn wood in the UK. Burning of wood doesn't count towards C02 emmissions.
    Countless people where I live burn wood, in fact there is nothing to beat the odour from burning wood.

    John S, your brother should be OK if he is paying the rent himself and it is not being paid by way of benefits.Also they have no intention at the moment of deducting or telling pensioners to downsize.
    Regards.

    John,woodburners are advertised every night in the Liverpool Echo,my neighbour has a coal fire but I think once you see the price of a cwt of coal today you will stick to your gas and lecky.

    Firstly J. Osbourn if i was you i would approach a benefit advisor myself and express your concerns regarding your brother, This is the 21st Century the war is over. We can all put our views and opinions forward regarding the economy in the UK And what we think the government should be doing after blaming the previous government for the mess we are in. But lets not forget the part the capatalist bankers have played in this economic downturn not only in the UK But all Western and European countries. If this wasn,t the 21st Century the answer would be what the history books tell us how to resolve the issue every 50 yrs or so have a world war unfortnately for those pulling the strings that isnt an option so what do they do any government sweat it out and wait until the world economy starts to grow.......... 3 of the World,s largest economy,s are in trouble USA/CHINA/INDIA/ Not to mention Europe. Well lads the guys sitting on the big bucks in this world Non Doms Banker,s and Capatalist,s greed is the only way out to kick start any economy other than that hit the armagedon button now just make sure it comes down my chimney Regards all Terry.... p.s. J Osbourn you can get a benefit advisor to pay a home visit on your brother unknown to him dont think about it m8 do it Good luck Terry. Graham there is also a French guy collecting capital gains for the spanish government goes by the name of { SHAMMY. LEATHURRE } Dont be kidded by him m8 he is in cognito as a window cleaner Terry.

    I know we all ahte the concept of more taxes, but since cocky was in the egg govs of all persuasions have been doing it. The modern day waorld is one where we all want the best, we all want the gov to provide all the services, but they cost money and the only way to get more is to find new taxes.
    Happy daze John in Oz.
